why the Vuck doesn't anyone ever answer these?!?!?! and if someone does why do they never answer the actual Vucking question directly? I could give a rat Vuck about ohms law and voltage at 120 physical degrees on a phase and 80% bla bla bla the Vucking heater says 3380 upper and lower elements and the Vucktards sell 3500 and 4500 watts elements so which Vucking is it? obviously 3500 is closer to 3380 so if the voltage is the same applied then the 3500 would be more efficient than the 4500 but is that the best answer - ignore the 3380 label and just buy 3500? (Vuck U/L) No one asked why the Vuck they asked What the Vuck? It's not like the Vucking electrician has 45000 options to wire up the dagnabbed things so they gotta bust out the slide rule and calculate the mother freaking circuit! Ya ya ya you're all smart, I get it but this isn't vucking Physics.com it's answers.com. Ya can't say replace it withwhat you have if it's marked 3380 and you can;t find a 3380 on a shelf you morons. thnak you for shopping
What else can I help you with?
How many amps are required to run a 240-volt 5500-watt water heater element?
Current (Amps) = Power (Watt)/Voltage (V) Therefore a 4500W heating element will draw 18.75A = 4500W/240V
How many lumen's in a 150 watt flood light?
The number of lumens produced by a 150-watt floodlight can vary depending on the efficiency of the light source. However, as a general estimate, a 150-watt floodlight typically produces around 1600 to 1800 lumens. This can vary based on the type of bulb used, the design of the fixture, and any additional features such as dimming capabilities.
Do a 12 volt 50 watt bulb and a 230 volt 50 watt bulb draw the same current?
No, they do not draw the same current. The current drawn by an electrical device is determined by the power (Watts) and voltage (Volts) using the formula: Current (amps) = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts). So, the 12 volt 50 watt bulb will draw higher current compared to the 230 volt 50 watt bulb.
What is the incandescent equivalent of a 40 Watt halogen bulb?
A halogen bulb IS ITSELF a type of incandescent illumination source. A 40 Watt traditional incandescent bulb usually emits about 400 to 500 lumens while a halogen may emit close to twice that. So a 25 W halogen might give out as much light as ah older style 40 W bulb.
What is a watt?
The watt is a unit of power. It is a Newton meter per second, or can be given as a joule per second. We often encounter it in electrical calculations, and it is the unit of power for applications there. The formula for power is given here:P = I x EIn this expression, the power (P) in watts is equal to the current (I) in amps (or amperes, if you prefer) times the voltage (E) in volts.The simplest example of a watt would be the amount of power that you would have if you had one volt at one amp of current. Or, to put it another way, 1 volt X 1 Amp=1 Watt. To go further, 12 volts at 1 amp equals 12 watts. This is for direct current measurement.For AC voltage, it varies in that you would multiply the volts by .707 (AC RMS voltage), then multiply by the amps to get your watts total.
Can you replace a 1500 watt element with a 2000 watt element in a 40 gallon water heater?
Yes you can.
Can I use 240 volt heater elements in a 120 volt hot water heater?
No. For an example using a 3500 watt element. The amperage through the element will be I = W/E, 3500/120 = 29 amps. The resistance of this 3500 watt element will be R = E/I, 120/29 = 4.13 ohms. Now using the 200 volts and finding the amperage I = E/R, 200/4.13 = 48 amps. The new wattage of the element has become W = A x V, 48 x 200 = 9600 watts. The element will not stand the increase in amperage and will burn open. To operate on 200 volts and still have a 3500 element in the tank you will have to find an element with a resistance of 12 ohms. I = W/E, 3500/200 = 17 amps. R = E/I = 200/17 = 12 ohms. This is a resistance three times more than the 120 volt element to achieve the 3500 watt rating.
If you mix a 1000 watt speaker with a 2500 watt speaker will they make a 3500 watt speaker?
No.
Can you replace a 32 watt fluorescent with a 40 watt fluorescent?
?
What is the recommended voltage for a 4500 watt water heater element?
The recommended voltage for a 4500 watt water heater element is typically 240 volts.
Is it all right to replace a 180 watt DLP TV bulb with a 200 watt bulb?
No, it is not alright to replace a 180 watt DLP TV bulb with a 200 watt bulb. You should only use the OEM rated size/wattage for your TV.
What is the power of an electrical cable car that uses 3500 joules every second?
3500W, or 3.5kW Power is measured in Watts; one Watt is 1 joule of energy converted/used per second. So, 3500 joules a second is 3500 Watts.
Wondering if you can adapt your 3500 watt generator to serve as a welder?
1. Some home made welder links below.
Can you replace a 150 watt metal halide lamp with a 175 watt?
The light bulb needs to match the ballast in the fixture.
Can you replace a 150 watt hallide with a 175 watt?
no you cant if the ballast is for a 150w bulb you have to retro fit the ballast then u can
Will a 4500 watt element work at all or just trip a 20amp breaker?
A 4500 watt element can work on a 20 amp breaker, but it may occasionally trip if the total load on the circuit exceeds 20 amps. It is recommended to use a 4500 watt element with a 25 amp breaker to ensure consistent performance.
Can i replace a 350 watt power supply with 300 watt?
It is not recommended to replace a 350 watt power supply with a 300 watt power supply, as the lower wattage may not provide enough power for your components. It's best to match or exceed the wattage of the original power supply to ensure proper functionality of your system.
